Day 2
Yep Yep.. the main focus of the trip... Jiu Zai Gou..
ppl who went there few yrs back need to tk bus for 6hrs...
good thing now they build an airport there..
Jiu Zai Gou is actually a highland area.. with very 'fairy' scenery
however gg there is not ez ... usually u hrd thse auntie who tell u its very tough... it's true..
thin oxygen due to the altitude..
tour guide will warn u... not to run and shout..
u will vomit, hv headache etc etc..to FAINT..
coz our body are nt use to highland..
aka altitude sickness
in chinese it's called gao yuan fa yin

chengdu domestic airport.. our usual lowland altitude 500
~

from far i saw some snow capped mountains....i told the others.. bt they say it was clouds..
-_-
when the plane get nearer and nearer ...
my guess is correct!
see the land is so high..we can see the mountains so clearly!!!

and we reached the ground!!

it was only 5 deg~!!! OMG.. we was told its only 7 or 8 deg only..
and.. it was really snow!!!!
my first close encounter with snow!
everyone was so happy!!!

altitude 3000+

we rushed out of the airport to tk a few snaps!
~

the tour guide see us ... ma chaim nv see snow b4... so he told the driver to stop over for phototaking~! he said tt in highland esp this period when winter-spring.. weather r hard to predict.. a rain might caused the temp to drop to zero at nite and therefore we saw snow in the day!

however some aunties oso experience headache...asthma..due to the altitude..
heng our itinerary wasnt so tight... and off we went to hotel..

mum keep telling me about our hotel we are staying ... named jiu zhai paradise...aka jiu zhai tian tang.. direct translate? HEAVEN..
